The U.S. plans to reimpose sanctions on Venezuela if no action is taken on hostages and elections by Thursday. Venezuela's planned vote over a territory dispute with Guyana has left residents on edge. The U.S. has imposed additional sanctions on Iran and North Korea. Venezuela is letting people know that there are only 4 days left until the referendum on Essequibo. The International Court of Justice will hand down a ruling on Guyana's border dispute with Venezuela on Friday. Venezuela vowed to go ahead with its referendum as it seeks to gain ownership of the Essequibo in Guyana. The U.S. has also imposed sanctions on an illegal financing network in Iran and on 21 people and entities for aiding Iran. Additionally, the U.S. has targeted an illicit financial network aiding Iran's military with new sanctions. The U.S. has blocked a crypto mixing service, Sinbad, alleging it helped North Korea launder funds stolen from crypto projects. Maduro has created an alternative economy for Venezuela, where illicit markets make up for over one fifth of the country’s GDP. The U.S. government has barred all American citizens and entities from using Sinbad, a crypto mixer that masks the origin, destination, and addresses of Bitcoin transactions. Venezuela has been warned, and the U.S. has also targeted an illegal financing network in Iran.
